In the early 2000s, Wolfgang Petersen was down to direct a Batman vs Superman movie starring Jude Law and Josh Hartnett as the respective caped crusaders. Could they be subtly hinting at a future superhero co-op movie? This week’s revelation that Man of Steel will feature a reference to Wayne Enterprises further raises questions of how close DC see’s Superman’s and Batman’s universes.

They have multiple Superman comic book storylines happening at the same time."Well, if any of these things were to happen - which I don’t know if they are, I don’t know if they’ve even been spoken about - I think, ultimately, a Justice League movie could be fun, but to get to that stage, you have to do other movies in between. Superman’s an extraordinary thing that lives within our hearts.
